AN: Can't fit the title in. Revealing the Stuff of Legend! and Rescuing the Unwilling!
With everyone assembled, they notice Alola's four guardian deities hovering above them before Storm first approaches Tapu Koko, and Ashly explains the situation to them as Lillie elaborates that Nebby, Nebula and Nebule's power to open an Ultra Wormhole would help save Lusamine, and Gladion asks if it was possible to meet Solgaleo and Lunala at the Altar of the Triplets. Immediately, Tapu Koko flies over to the other guardian deities, and after a brief discussion, the quartet sends out a powerful cry and a multicolored sphere appears. Rotom explains that the island deities' Psychic, Electric, Misty, and Grassy Terrains have mixed making Ashly to know what this means and allows it as she needs Gladion to know that Nebby, Nebula and Nebule aren't Ultra Beast through this as Tapu Koko nods to her secretly as the other Tapus don't know about it really making her to be happy as she'll let them know when it's time or Tapu Koko can which he will.
'Allow them to see, please.' A beam of light descends and forms a viewing screen as Solgaleo followed by Lunala emerge from separate Ultra Wormholes and clashed just as in Ashly's dream earlier and three Cosmogs then emerges from the cloud, which Mallow recognizes as the Neb-triplets. Nebby, Nebula and Nebule instantly teleports the four island guardians to a location near the Pokémon School. It is revealed that Tapu Koko lured Ashly and Storm to Nebby, Nebula and Nebule who Ashly knew the whole time as she did have to answer Gladion's questions and only mentioned that Lunala only trusted her to do it really making Kiawe to glare at Gladion for that really. The viewing screen suddenly fades as Kukui tells Ashly that he believes that the guardian deities, Lunala and Solgaleo entrusted her with Nebby, Nebula and Nebule whilst Rowlet is fast asleep inside Ashly's bag, something begins to glow; Rowlet hurriedly leaves Ashly's bag, and Nebby, Nebula and Nebule floats out.
'So, it's time then.' Ashly knew what was going to happen and nods to Tapu Koko as she shows him the three peculiar cocooned Pokémon, which soon continues it's ascent into the sky as Tapu Lele and Tapu Fini begin to throw glitter and water vapor around Nebby, Nebula and Nebule which was making Gladion becomes infuriated by the delay, though Tapu Koko silences his concerns with an intense glare while Ashly slaps him on the back of the head making him to rub there (AN: Gib slap! 😉). Lillie reassures her older brother that the Island Guardians are capable and require everyone's patience as Kukui leaves the group after receiving a phone call, explaining that Burnet was due to arrive and as he departs, he whispers to his Braviary still in it's Poké Ball as Ashly knew her dad has a aura bond with his Pokémon really thanks to her book on Aura Bonds really. Meanwhile, Team Rocket are climbing their way to the Altar of the Triplets after a very tough match against several Jangmo-o making them to be tired really.
"This climb is hard!"
"Well, when going up against those Pokémon, what do you think?!"
"Oh shut up, Meowth! It wasn't easy for me or Jessie to fight those Pokémon really!" Upon making it there, James pulls out a book and reveals the four mysterious floating Pokémon are Alola's guardian deities, though his reference doesn't contain Cosmoem. Meowth had overhears Ashly and her friends' conversation, which reveals that Nebby, Nebula and Nebule has since evolved. The trio are still under the assumption that the Neb-triplets is a pre-evolved form of Koffing and decide to catch it and the guardians as meanwhile, Burnet and her Munchlax are surrounded by a horde of Jangmo-o and Hakamo-o when Kukui arrives on the scene as he calls upon his Braviary and flies over to Burnet's side. The obstacle is cleared after one Brave Bird attack, much to Burnet's surprise. Elsewhere, Team Rocket is admiring their latest targets through a set of binoculars. Suddenly, Bewear arrives and carries Team Rocket away, jumping across to another cliff where Bewear holds the group tighter causing them pain before releasing them.
"Fine! If you want us to watch, we'll watch!"
"Why can't we just capture them?!"
"Beware doesn't want us to interrupt what's going to happen down there really." Team Rocket watch the unfolding scene in awe. Now, the four island guardians are hovering above their respective pillars and humming in harmony. The ground begins to glow and a light traces it's way upwards and opens the Altar of the Triplets. The now opened portal beams a light directly onto Nebby, Nebula and Nebule blinding everyone before in a light and fire spectacle, it emerges as a newly evolved Solgaleo, Lunala and Tycrom as Rotom takes a flurry of images and records that Cosmoem evolved into Solgaleo, Lunala and a new Pokémon where Jessie notes that the evolution is pretty cool, but James looks them up and notes one of them isn't in the book and both Jessie and Meowth saw James mumbling to himself really.
"But I could have sworn as it looked like gas and it could have needed the cocoon to harden the gas to solid… But why did I make a mistake like that?" James mumbled before Jessie and Meowth then chastise James for his wrongful claim that the Neb-triplets was an Alolan pre-evolved form of Koffing, even if his reasons were only theories really. As Ashly and her friends are in awe of Solgaleo, Lunala and Tycrom's presence, Lillie approaches Solgaleo before embracing it. Ashly offers Solgaleo, Lunala and Tycrom some star candies to eat which they happily accepts and licks Ashly with their giant yellow/red tongue as thanks. (AN: Tycrom is a Fakemon called 'Eclipse Legendary' by Deltheor)
"Memma Ashly! Memma Kiawe! I'm a big boy now!"
"Oh be quiet, you over grown lion! I got a headack coming on from your shouting!"
"What did you call me, you over grown bat?!"
"What did YOU call me?!"
"Enough the both of you! Don't make me sic Memma Kiawe on you two cause I will!" Nebby and Nebula shutted up as they flinched at their sister's tone of voices cause of her two heads talking at the same time really and apologies to their Memmas for their loudness.
"It's fine, you two. Just don't pick fights with your siblings, alright?" All three nod and everyone got a good look at them really as Solgaleo is a large, white Pokémon resembling a lion. It has a blunt muzzle with a blue-gray nose and pale blue eyes. The top half of its face is a deep blue area that shows a constantly changing starscape. Four yellow spikes frame Solgaleo's head like a crown and two more pairs of spikes adorn either side of it's lower jaw. Each spike separates large tufts of Solgaleo's mane. Solid ridges—red nearest Solgaleo's head and yellow farther away—poke out of each tuft along the middle, except on the tufts on it's cheeks and chin, with the topmost part wrapping around the tip of the tuft. Overall, it's mane creates the impression of a stylized sun. Around each leg is a dark orange band, and there is a black spot on each foot. It has three black toes on each foot with long yellow claws. At the tip of it's tail is a large black spot with a thin yellow rim.
When Solgaleo enters it's Radiant Sun phase, it's third eye appears on it's forehead—a light blue symbol similar to a compass rose—and the starscape turns to streaks of light. The fur on it's body glows a pale yellow and all other parts of it's body except it's nose turn bright yellow. Known as the "beast that devours the sun," Solgaleo has long been honored as an emissary of the sun. It said to live in another world and returns there when it's third eye activates. It's body is capable of holding a vast amount of energy and glows when active. The intense light it radiates can make nighttime look like midday. Solgaleo can create Ultra Wormholes to travel to and from Ultra Space. Along with it's counterpart Lunala and Tycrom, it can create Cosmog which it is said to be the male evolution of it. It can also influence a Rockruff's evolution into Lycanroc's Midday form with solar energy. Solgaleo is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Sunsteel Strike and exclusive Z-Move Searing Sunraze Smash.
Lunala is a large Pokémon resembling a skeletal, legless bat. It has a short snout, dark pink eyes with white centers and a deep blue area on its upper head that shows a constantly changing starscape. A rigid, raised hood wraps around its head in a crescent shape and drapes around its neck as well. The outside of the hood is yellow while the inner part that curves around Lunala's head is white with deep blue streaks. It's torso resembles a ribcage with a slightly curved spike on each shoulder and three spikes extending from the bottom toward it's tail. It's massive wings resemble a bat's wings with the skeleton exposed, except that Lunala's wings have a total of seven "finger bones": four running through each wing, one running along the edge to the outermost tip, and two pointing upwards that may act as claws that are more functional. The four "bones" in Lunala's wings are only visible in segments.
The skin of Lunala's wings is an iridescent deep blue and a light blue light source appears to glow from behind it's ribcage. A large, pale yellow crescent connects the outermost tip of each wing to the next two inner tips, and the remaining two innermost tips are adorned by yellow, four-pointed stars. The bottom of Lunala's tail is also lined by a yellow crescent with a ridge running up the middle of the tail towards the ribcage. When Lunala enters its Full Moon phase, its third eye—a light red symbol of an eye—appears on it's forehead and the starscape turns to streaks of light. The skin of it's wings glows a bright, light blue. It spreads it's wings wide so that the yellow parts on each wing are arranged in a circle with the outermost points of the four-pointed stars disappearing in the transformation. Known as the "beast that calls the moon," Lunala has long been honored as an emissary of the moon.
This Pokémon constantly absorbs light to convert into energy and can obscure daylight with darkness. When it spreads it's wings to absorb light and glitters, it resembles a beautiful night sky. It is said to live in another world, which it returns to when it opens it's third eye. Lunala can create Ultra Wormholes to travel to and from Ultra Space. Lunala and it's counterpart, Solgaleo and Tycrom, can create Cosmog, which it is said to be the female evolution of it. It can also influence a Rockruff's evolution into Lycanroc's Midnight form with lunar energy. Lunala is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Moongeist Beam and the exclusive Z-Move Menacing Moonraze Maelstrom. Tycrom looks like a two-head wolf with grey and dark grey fur on with the top of it's head and up to the nose looks starry with orange eyes on each head. It has goldened something that are resting on it's shoulders with it going to the back of it's two heads and goes along it's shoulder to the back with three lines that has two starry things like it's head.
It has the golden thing going into a pointy thing with the end liking sort of like an end of a music note and it's has two tails with the golden things on it with one in a half shape of the moon and the other one in a half shape of the sun with the front legs of the same starry stuff on the whole front of the lower leg. (AN: Here's the link. I can say I tried to explain what Tycrom looks like really. deltheor/art/Fakemon-Eclipse-Legendary-613553453) Ashly knows that Nebule has to keep them in check even if she's the younger sibling really as Nebule agrees with her Memma as she'll try her best making Ashly to nod as she rubs her twin heads making her to calm down as Nebula and Nebby whiles and wanted to be petted as well and rubs against Ashly making her to laugh as everyone knows that Ashly has a special bond with them really like Kiawe does as they're Nebby, Nebula and Nebule's memmas really making Gladion to be shocked that Ashly played the mother to them with Kiawe as the father really.
"Solgaleo, the Sunne Pokémon. A Psychic/Steel type and the evolve form of Cosmoem. It is said to live in another world. The intense light it radiates from the surface of it's body can make the darkest of nights light up like midday. This Pokémon is said to be a male evolution of Cosmog. At the activation of it's third eye, it departs for another world. Sometimes the result of it's opening an Ultra Wormhole is that energy and life-forms from other worlds are called here to this world. In writings from the distant past, it's called by the name "the beast that devours the sun." Lunala, the Moone Pokémon. A Psychic/Ghost type and the evolve form of Cosmoem. It is said to be a female evolution of Cosmog. When it's third eye activates, away it flies to another world. Said to live in another world, this Pokémon devours light, drawing the moonless dark veil of night over the brightness of day.
Records of it exist in writings from long, long ago, where it was known by the name "the beast that calls the moon." It sometimes summons unknown powers and life-forms here to this world from holes that lead to other worlds. Tycrom, the Eclipse Pokémon. A Psychic/Dark type and the evolve form of Cosmoem. It is said to live in another world. The intense darkness it radiates from the surface of it's body can block out either the moon or the sun. This Pokémon is said to be the second female line of Cosmog. At the activation of it's third eye, it departs for another world. Sometimes the result of it's opening an Ultra Wormhole is that energy and life-forms from other worlds are called here to this worlds. In writings from the distant past, it's called by the name "the beast that devours both day and night." Whoa! Ashly! Did you really know about this the whole time and never told anyone about it?!" Ashly nods.
"I wanted to keep the triplets safe really and not have them be worshiped as they weren't ready for that until they all evolved really." That explanation was making Gladion to apologies for calling them Ultra Beasts making Nebby to 'Lick Attack' Gladion's face making him to laugh really at Nebby's actions as he was on his back as Nebby keeps licking his face making Ashly to smile as she knows with Lillie who is also smiling that Gladion needs to smile more.
'Looks like Nebby had just aura bonded to Gladion. Not mad as he is the Sun Priest. Hope Lillie wouldn't mind being aura bonding to Nebule really as I know Nebula is already aura bonded to me really. Oh? A Hakamo-o? That's Kiawe's new friend he got from the cave? I say they make a great team.' All three nod as Tapu Koko nods as well, too. Ashly, Lillie and Gladion after getting his breath back, then asks them if they can take them through the Ultra Wormhole before a Z-Crystal appears landing in Ashly, Gladion and Lillie's hand as the peculiarly-shaped Z-Crystal does not fit into Ashly nor Gladion's Z-Ring with Tapu Koko removing them from their wrist. It closes it's shell with the two Z-Rings inside and performs a ritual chant and dance before passing it on to Tapu Lele followed by Tapu Bulu and Tapu Fini as all of them upgrading Ashly and Gladion's Z-Rings. Ashly thanks the island guardians for the upgrade, which can now fit the Solganium Z, Lunalium Z and Tycromium Z.
"Now we can open our own Ultra Wormholes to get Lusamine back!" Mallow said as Gladion immediately requests them to take them through the Ultra Wormhole to rescue his mother which all three had appeared to be a little startled by the forward request before they lay flat to allow everyone to climb aboard as Kiawe commands the group to return their Pokémon to their Poké Balls before they depart. With everyone on board in teams of three, Solgaleo (Gladion and Mallow), Lunala (Ashly, Storm and Kiawe) and Tycrom (Lillie, Sophocles and Lana) stands up as Tapu Koko floats over and shows Ashly, Gladion and Lillie the Z-Move pose in several stages as Lillie has her own Z-ring thanks to Tapu Lele who connects mentally saying it's only temporary until she comes back then she'll take it back. A sun symbol emerges on Solgaleo's forehead, a moon symbol emerges on Lunala's forehead and a eclipse symbol emerges on Tycrom's forehead and with three roars, all three becomes a bright light and performs Searing Sunraze Smash, Menacing Moonraze Maelstrom and Blinding Eclipseraze Blackout as all three were creating a very large Ultra Wormhole opening for the group to float through with room for all three to go in side by side.
"Let's Go!" Team Rocket is astounded and believes so many rare treasures and Pokémon may be behind the portal and out of curiosity, Jessie asks Bewear if it could jump through the portal, but it holds the trio tighter to inflict pain. Kukui and Burnet arrive at the Altar in time to see the opening closing and the guardian deities departing as Solgaleo, Lunala and Tycrom runs through the Ultra Wormhole while everyone holds on tightly. Ashly hopes she doesn't see that memory or else she'll have to answer that question sooner than she should have as she knows that Gladion should have been awakening his Priest powers first and not her meaning something is very wrong and she needs to figure it out and fast as Tapu Koko will help out whenever he can really. Ashly thanks him and felt a Z-Crystal in her pocket making her to sense it and it was the Tapunium Z-Crystal making her to wonder if it was right, but will ask when they come back home as she needs to focus right now.
"You couldn't catch up, so you always
Looked up at something from here
Somethings vanish if you reach them
You've been hiding your countless tears too
You've been watching the world
For so long now
You don't have to chase your dreams alone
The invisible wind will help you
I feel I can fly so far, so high
Just please don't let go of my hand
Words alone can't convey
The truths I carry in my heart
One might know, but not erase them
You kept hiding your sadness
With smiles, and I didn't notice
It looks like I got too close
To the depth of your heart, And I can't hear your song
Oh, my love, where are you now?
The sky is gray and I'm lost without you
There's no wind to carry me far and high
The sky I can't see is ripping my wings off
You don't have to chase your dreams alone
The invisible wind will help you
I feel I can fly so far, so high
Just please don't let go of my hand
I know your blues
Oh yeah, yeah
Hey ya yeah hey oh." Ashly sings making the ride to be more smoother as everyone was shocked Ashly would sing right now, but then saw that everything was much easier as it's wider as Nebby, Nebula and Nebule are on a sun, moon and eclipse platform that is moving them at a faster speed making them to wonder if Ashly did it which had her wondering as she knows in her Moonneon form, she can ride on the moon platform, but only if she needs to stay away from opponents really and attack from above them as she knows everyone is looking to her about this really. The group exits the Ultra Wormhole and enters Ultra Deep Sea, a dark location filled with floating islands of jagged rocks and just as the group lands, they find themselves surrounded by several Nihilegos making Ashly to be a bit nervous about this. Rotom warns of the danger and Gladion clarifies that the Ultra Beasts are UB01: Symbiont – the same ones responsible for his mother's kidnapping.
'This is not going to be a good thing as we don't know which one has her really.' Ashly thinks as meanwhile, Kukui and Burnet, still at the Altar of the Triplets, have set up a temporary Ultra Wormhole monitoring station. One of the machines fires a location marker to aid Ashly and her friends upon their return. Team Rocket watches the professors from their cliff-side view. As they try to retreat with Ashly now missing, Bewear hugs them tightly to immobilize them. Back at Ultra Deep Sea, Gladion demands the group split up though the idea concerns Lillie as Sophocles states an investigation is in order before one of Nihilego's tentacles brushes against him and Ashly's confidence only irritates Sophocles though Ashly explains that the group do have their Pokémon. This spurs the group into calling out all of their Pokémon, but Nebby, Nebula and Nebule roars later afterwards just as Lusamine appears and her eyes open though she is trapped and bonded with a Nihilego making Ashly to widen her eyes as this is not going to be a good thing at all really.
'Oh boy. This isn't going to be good.' Ashly thinks as Nebula a.k.a Lunala nuzzles her and has the proper aura bond with her like Nebule does with Lillie and Nebby does with Gladion as it's too small to be a proper one really. Lillie calls out and Rotom confirms Lusamine's identity with a facial recognition feature. Solgaleo, Lunala and Tycrom roars once more; this time, Lusamine demands the group stay away from her. Lillie runs towards her mother making both Ashly and Gladion to attempt to stop her as it's dangerous. As a defense, Lusamine blocks the path with jagged rocks, but Ashly manages to save Lillie from injury as Gladion's Umbreon uses Dark Pulse which shatters the stones. Gladion theorizes that Nihilego may be draining his mother's energy though he clarifies little is known of Ultra Beasts in general. Ashly moves forward though Kiawe notes that the group may be provoking Lusamine as she continues to retreat exclaiming that she finally got to meet an Ultra Beast and will not give it up leaving a rocky staircase for the group to follow.
"She sure is acting childish." Mallow said as she calls Lusamine's behavior childish is overrated if she is acting childish; Gladion adds that Lusamine may consider the Ultra Beast a toy that she won't part with and consequently considers the group as a threat to her which Ashly wished never had happened at all really. The group finally catches up to Lusamine and Lillie commands Snowy to use Powder Snow as Lusamine defends herself with her rock shield and then shouts out that she hates everyone which Lillie is initially taken aback by this really, but Mallow offers support to her and Lillie concludes Lusamine must be illogical really. Storm's Thunderbolt, Turtonator's Flamethrower, Marowak's Bonemerang and Gladion's Lycanroc's Stone Edge all prove to be useless as well. Nebby, Nebula and Nebule then steps forward as they glow and jumps through the barrier much to everyone's amazement. Lusamine summons her Salazzle which is surrounded in an aura as Turtonator counters Salazzle's poison attack with a Flamethrower which allows Lusamine to flee again.
'Oh man. I'm going to have to letcher her about her behavior and the way she's acting, aren't I?' Ashly was so going to be getting a headack from this as Lunala nuzzles her Memma to comfort her.
"Afraid so, Memma Ashly. Afraid so." Salazzle uses another attack and evades Turtonator's Dragon Tail though it is then hit by Marowak's Flare Blitz as Kiawe volunteers to stay behind to take care of Salazzle while the rest of the group continue on. The group catches up to Lusamine once again and she calls upon her Milotic, Mismagius and Lilligant. A Thunderbolt and Hydro Pump are launched though the group evades the attacks as Lana has Popplio use Bubble Beam while Mallow calls for Magical Leaf though Liligant's Petal Dance blocks the attack. Mismagius uses another Thunderbolt though it is absorbed by Togedemaru as Ashly, Lillie and Gladion continue following Lusamine, leaving the others and Rotom to confront Lusamine's diversions. Popplio's Bubble Beam hits Liligant, and Steenee's Double Slap combats Milotic's Aqua Tail. Just as Mismagius laughs at the group's induced confusion because of Liligant's Teeter Dance, Ashly's Littens, Kono and Kona plus her two Rowlets join the match.
"You four go help them out!" Liligant's Sweet Scent instantly attracts her two Rowlets much to everyone's frustration really meanwhile, Kiawe's match against Salazzle ends after a combination between Turtonator's Inferno Overdrive alongside Marowak's Bonemerang. Meanwhile with Gladion, Lillie and Ashly re-encounter Lusamine and she sends out her Absol which Gladion remarks that it was a sparring partner to his Umbreon before Absol makes the first move which collides Umbreon's Dark Pulse as Gladion then sends Nebby, Nebula, Nebule, Ashly and Lillie on their way. With the battle still raging, Absol fires an Ice Beam which freezes Silvally on the spot followed by Mean Look which is used on Umbreon and Lycanroc. Lusamine is again confronted by Ashly and Lillie; she continues to express her frustration towards them and calls upon Clefable which Lillie tells Ashly that she will battle against Clefable and refers to it as her best friend.
"Alright, but be careful. Lycanrocs! Come on out and help Lillie out!" After her four Lycanrocs intercepts Clefable's Moonblast, Ashly leaves them with Lillie and rides on Nebule towards Lusamine as Clefable attacks with Dazzling Gleam though all four Lycanrocs again blocks the attack before both Snowy's Powder Snow and Lycanroc's Rock Throw hit their target pushing Clefable back. Lillie grabs a Poké Doll from her bag then calmly and defiantly approaches Clefable as she expresses her hope that Clefable will stop fighting when it reminisces about their past together. However, Clefable begins to launch another Dazzling Gleam, but Lillie gestures to Midday, Midnight, Dusk and Dawn Lycanroc and Snowy to stay back as she embraces Clefable and is engulfed in the attack's light and Lillie's persistence pays off really and Clefable returns to it's usual state and smiles as meanwhile, Ashly and Storm continue to pursue Lusamine aboard Nebule while outside the Ultra Wormhole, Burnet gets Kukui to send out Braviary which he does as Burnet heals Braviary with a Potion, places a band-aid on it's talon and thanks it's efforts against Hakamo-o.
